Your pet is your family. As humans, we have always been fond of animals. Earlier, we raised animals for protection and livestock purposes. Today, we do it mostly for travel and companionship. Needless to say, they aren’t just animals anymore. What’s more – in many houses, they have their own beds, couch, or even a room.
